Abstract: A voltage-to-current converter makes it possible to control conversion of a voltage to a current by considering the size of a transistor irrespective of supply voltage, input voltage, and fabrication conditions. It includes an operational amplifier (10) for receiving a constant-voltage source (V IN ) to a noninverting terminal, and amplifying the voltage; a converting circuit (31) for converting the input voltage to current after receiving the output voltage from the operational amplifier as an input; a current mirror (32) for receiving the output current from the converting circuit as an input, and enabling two transistors of the current mirror to flow the same current; an electric potential holding circuit (33) for maintaining two electric potentials which are applied on respective drain terminals of the two transistors of the current mirror to be equal; and an output current mirror (34) for constantly maintaining current flowing out from the current mirror, which biases the electric potential of a drain terminal of the second transistor used in the current mirror with a predetermined value, and flows a constant voltage to the constant-current source output terminal.

IPC: H03F1/32

Abstract: In order to carry out high-precision control of distortion compensation, the received signal is split into two, one of the resulting signals ("the first signal") is passed to a distortion generator (11) with similar characteristics to the distortion produced at the transmitting side, and the phase and amplitude of the other of the resulting signals ("the second signal") are controlled. By adding these two signals, the desired signal is suppressed and only the distortion component is extracted. This process is controlled by correlation detection of the desired signal. Next, the distortion component contained in the second signal is removed by controlling the phase and amplitude of this extracted distortion component and adding the result to the second signal. This process is controlled by detecting the correlation between the extracted distortion component and the error component contained in the signal after the addition. This enables compensation for distortion produced at the transmitting side to be performed at the receiving side, whereby the transmitting equipment can be reduced in size.

Abstract: A louvered, corrugated cooling fin (42) has its louvers (48)
bent out of the fin walls (44) in a novel configuration. Rather than being bent
out of the fin wall (44) about central, lengthwise axes that are square to the fin
wall (44), the louvers (48) are bent out, at shallow angles, about axes that run
corner to corner of the louver, axes which are not square to the fin wall (44).
As a consequence, rather than moving on lengthwise half of the louver (48) to
each side of the fin wall (44), one diagonal half of the louver (44) is moved to
each side of the fin wall (44). Another consequence is that diagonally
opposed corners of the louvers (48) are shifted out of constricted areas (C)
between the fin wall (44), and into less constricted areas (O), allowing greater
louver length, greater effective louver opening depth (D'), and better overall
air flow.

Abstract: A toy vehicle has a chassis (12), two axles (26), two pairs of wheels (22 and 24, 28 and 30) and four identical wheel support housings (32). The wheels are mounted for rotation on the housings, which are mounted off center on the axles so as to rotate eccentrically around the axles with the wheels. Wheels on either lateral side (15, 16) of the chassis are driven by separate propulsion motors (42, 44) driving separate, mirror image gear trains (46, 46') in the chassis to propel the vehicle. Collars (49) around each of the axles and pairs of gears (50, 33) within each of the wheel support housings themselves couple the wheels with the gear trains. The axles are rotated together through a third shaft (70) driven by a separate accessory motor (94) to vary the eccentric position of the wheel support housings and thereby alter the appearance and performance of the vehicle. Slip clutches (71, 73), each with angled, mating faces (86a, 88), effectively couple the axles with the third shaft.

Abstract: A four-wheeled electromotive cart includes a single motor (38) and a direct axle driving mechanism (40) for driving the axle (44) of left and right front wheels (2L, 2R) by means of the motor (38). The single electric motor (38) would cause no rotation speed difference between the left and right front wheels (2L, 2R) and hence constantly permits a smooth linear movement of the electromotive cart. The direct axle driving mechanism (40) includes a relay shaft (41) connected to the output shaft (38a) of the electric motor (38), a small-diameter bevel gear (42) mounted on a lower end of the relay shaft (41), and a large-diameter bevel gear (43) engaging with the small-diameter bevel gear (42). The front-wheel axle (44) is spline-connected to the large-diameter bevel gear (43) so as to be driven by the motor (38) via the direct axle driving mechanism (40). Thus, the electromotive cart is allowed to smoothly start moving without sudden jolts or shocks caused by start of the motor rotation.

Abstract: An ignition device for an internal combustion engine
capable of suppressing not only a decrease in the
discharge energy of the spark plug but also the LC
resonance itself. When an igniter 13 is turned on by an
ignition timing control unit 14 and a current flows into
a primary coil 111 of the igniter 11, a FET 31 is turned
off by the ignition timing control unit 14, whereby the
primary coil is cut off from an LC resonance-absorbing
resistor 32 to prevent a decrease in the current flowing
into the primary coil. The ignition timing control unit
14 turns the igniter 13 off and turns the FET 31 on a
predetermined period after the start of discharge of the
secondary coil 112, whereby the primary coil and the LC
resonance-absorbing resistor are connected together to
absorb LC resonance after the discharge of the secondary
coil, in order to suppress the occurrence of noise caused
by LC resonance.

Abstract: A variable displacement type compressor is disclosed.
The compressor includes a housing, a cylinder bore within
the housing, a piston located in the cylinder bore, a drive
shaft rotatably supported by the housing, a rotary support
mounted on the drive shaft, and a cam plate connected to the
piston. The cam plate is supported tiltably on the drive
shaft and is slidable in axial directions of the drive
shaft. The cam plate inclines between a maximum inclination
position and a minimum inclination position when the
displacement of the compressor is changed. A first moment
is applied to the cam plate by a compression reaction force
of the piston when the compressor is operating. A hinge
mechanism is located between the rotary support and the cam
plate. The cam plate is rotated integrally with the drive
shaft, the rotary support, and the hinge mechanism. An
urging device is located between the rotary support and the
cam plate for urging the cam plate toward the minimum
inclination angle position. An applying mechanism applies a
second moment to the swash plate in the same direction as
the first moment when the compressor is not operating.

Abstract: This invention provides a method for prolonging the
preservation of human blood platelets at reduced
temperatures. The method uses an inhibitor system that
enables blood platelets to maintain their discoid shape and
retain their functional integrity during storage. This is
accomplished by interrupting normal platelet function
during storage, so as to help keep platelets from
activating and losing their shape. Before using the
platelets in a transfusion, they are returned to their
normal functional level by washing the inhibitor system
away from the platelets.

Abstract: In order to clip the levels of an incoming in-phase and quadrature signals,
a comparator receives the in-phase signal, a clipping level, and an inverted
clipping level. The comparator compares the level of the in-phase signal with
each of the clipping level and the inverted clipping level, and generates a
comparison result. A selector, in response to the comparison result, allows the
in-phase signal to pass therethrough when the level of the in-phase signal
exceeds the inverted clipping level and less than the clipping level, selecting the
inverted clipping level when the level of the in-phase signal is less than the
inverted clipping level, and selecting the clipping level when the level of the in-phase
signal exceeds the clipping level. On the other hand, the level of the
quadrature signal is limited using another comparator and selector in exactly the
same manner as mentioned above.
